The Chinese Communists have come a long way from the nightmarish years of Mao Tse Tung. But they still have a long way more to go... The road is long and winding, and they will need a little help from their friends and guidance from their co-travelers as the Chinese Communists evolve towards being a liberal democracy that is true to its 5000 years of great tradition.

Americans cannot tolerate people who make shoes for them, with their subconscious feeling of ultimate superiority over everybody.

Most of Western/Anglo-American are deep rooted in their hatred and fear of Chinese - Chinese Exclusion Act, Opium War, etc. It is inconceivable in the minds of Western that their values are wrong and incongruent with the universal values that the majority of the world hold - that is respect for all people and culture. Their values are clouded in their false sense of superiority by one time almost colonizing Chin, as such they will never respect Chinese unless the Chinese turn their back on their own history and listen the Western's orientalist.

I went to school in America, and most American are profoundly and distrubingly ignorant of the world and China, and even when they do learn Chinese history, speak the language, or marry a Chinese woman, they still have a sense of superiority and condescension towards Chinese.

Huntsman assessment of China is typical of Anglo-American, who gladly turn a blind eye to their own hypocrisy it benefit them. Chinese are more rooted in history as it serves a template to understand the present, and to safeguard the future - and history of Western engagement with China is one of condescesion, racism, and gunboat diplomacy. Therefore, Chinese should understand when Huntsman or other Western speaks of values, they are not talking about mutual respect of differing values, but rather to force their values on other, this is no different from the Opium War.

Huntsman recognizes China for its merits, and also its darker side.

While most of the World is focused on high-priced oil, a nuclear-armed Iran, and social unrest in the Middle East, I contend the highest-priority issue is the emergence of China as a military powerhouse in the Pacific region. Japan, South Korea, Australia, and especially Taiwan are well aware of the unprecedented increase in defense spending in China, much of it intentionally hidden from public scrutiny.

The biggest threat to world peace and stability is not Iran or Al Qaeda. It's China's desire to challenge the status quo, and eventually dominate the entire Pacific region.

Because he is a grovelling capitalist and doesnt give a ratsass about human rights and so on. He was seen during a meeting with some protestors in Beijing and then scurried off into the crowd..What sort of American Ambassador is THAT? But you see, it doesn't matter to him or his family, he will ritdeon a fat pension for the rest of his life and write a book about his lame-as castrated Ambassadorial term.

The British have a word for people like these weak-spined, beaurocratic snivellers, and the word is TOSSER.

Huntsman, giving his former job as an ambassador to China with presidential ambitions has quite some internal conflict of interests. On one hand his job require him to be 'diplomatic' with the Chinese, while he needs at least some kind China bashing in order to gain political support back home.

Any amount of China bashing is good for politics these days in the US. In the collective mindset of an average American, the failure of Chinese system is a necessary justification of the existence of their own system.

The American system is not working as smooth as they suppose to be lately. It is the job of a politician to constantly telling the American people, that it is not their system which is broken, but the despicable Chinese are cheating and stealing from them. The Chinese system is not 'suppose' to work, etc. And the American public buys it, why not. The Chinese did exactly the same 100 years ago. The 'Ah Q' mentality, as Lu Xun put it. Never underestimate the power of denial.

But I think Huntman needs a lot more China bashing to have a shot.

But I have found many more ( I emphasize MANY MORE ) Americans to be nice, polite, emphatic, righteousness, naïve sometimes, independent, thinking outside boxes, usually do not litter, smoke or spit in the public……. Perhaps it is more racist in China in many instances than in USA, EXAMPLES: Many Shanghai people look down on others not from Shanghai; Not just a few Beijing people feel that they are superior because they have more political power in that city; Most city people look down on people from country side; They are often do not respect people from country side; So many people laugh at people from Anhui but many prominent Chinese were born in Anhui; Most drivers are rude to pedestrians and feel that they are king of the road; Calling Japanese people are bad and deserve to die from quakes;………… Sure, sure Americans(or USA) have made mistake in the past or present just like any country, China no exception. Huntsman is one person who is does not represent all Americans. Also he is a Mormon who probably has his view tainted by religion. That’s why USA Constitution stipulates separation of state and religion. Why China is promoting religions fervently now? Americans have are many good things. Concentrate on Huntsman not bring in all or most Americans, you racist bigot…… There are many good things in present day China. She is changing and changing really fast…..

Depending how you look at it. For example, I am now in China. I can say this and discuss this. But information needs to be controlled. This is true in many countries even in USA. Unlimited information may not be a good thing such as pornography, racist comments, terrorist agitations, rumors, dissemination of explosive making information, false accusations ………… Look at China now; there are large numbers of illiterates or lower level educated persons. Complete free information flow may cause panic and others, such as recently buying salt and sea weeds.

Why did the Japanese attack Pearl Harbor? It was because the US embargoed oil to Japan to try to pressure Japan into stopping its war against China. So the US was forced into war by its defense of China against Japanese aggression. And, if the US hadn't defeated the Japanese Army, everyone in China today would be speaking Japanese. Mao and Chiang certainly didn't do very much to drive the Japanese out - they saved all their energies for the fight they expected would come once American won the war.

But his speech is very rigidly PC. If he is this way, the Chinese cannot expect much difference in attitudes from other US political elites. Under such circumstances, lack of trust is OK. We can still do business as we've done for the past 30 years. Remember that during the 90s', the US politicians made threats to revoke China's MFN every year and didn't carry out the threat due to their calculation of their interests. Now this is not much of an issue. The Sino-US relations has been based more on the balance of strength than trust. The US imposes trade embargo on Cuba because the US politicians say they have values. I think the main reason is that the Cuban market is small and insignificant. When it comes to China, some of the values of these politicians can be traded
for economic interests. The average American has a family to raise and bills to pay, so do the average Chinese. In 10 to 15 years, China has a good chance of becoming the largest economy in the world, a much better chance than Mr. Huntsman's presidential bid.

Extreamly very sorry to hear that China failed to keep its promise to honor the WTO ruling regarding their implementation to stop copyright infringement and intellectual property rights violations on United States businesses as they agreed! One can plainly see that China has yet to honor their "WTO GOVERNMENT PROCUREMENT AGREEMENT" when they became a member in 2001!

Imagine the Chinese commies running the US economy? First let me know when China can feed the current 300 million Chinese citizens that go hungary everyday in your country! Also let me know when the CCP government can provide the water shorted to 281 million people in China, and purify the contaminated drinking water to over 700 million Chinese citizens! I think the last thing we need is the Chinese communist utopia running things around here in the United States, when you guys can't even flush toilets in Beijing because of the drought, and failure to confront the growing unsustainable food & water issues to its 1.3 billion people!

If you take a look at how the Chinese businesses are 'raping' the African nations of their natural resources, its no wonder many Africans are referring to the Chinese as the new 'colonialist power' in Africa today!

China's problems are much more severe than worrying about diplomatic ties, it comes down to if China will see a mass migration of its population move into Russia by 2020 when the water runs dry!
